Abstract

In the title compound, [Cu(C7H3NO4)(C5H5N)]n, the CuII atom is in a slightly distorted octa­hedral coordination environment. Each CuII atom is bound to two N atoms and one O atom of the pyridine­dicarboxyl­ate (PDA) ligand in a tridentate manner, one N atom of the pyridine mol­ecule and two bridging carboxyl­ate O atoms of adjacent PDA ligands, leading to a linear one-dimensional chain running along the c axis. These chains are further assembled via weak C-H...O and [pi]-[pi] inter­actions into a three-dimensional supra­molecular network structure. The centroid-centroid distance between the [pi]-[pi] inter­acting pyridine rings is 3.9104 (13) Å. The two N atoms are trans to each other with respect to Cu.
